For the umpteenth time. O'Reilly is NOT a conservative. He rails against high taxes and then advocates myriad government programs. He's an out of control populist who I refer to as a "know it all who knows little".

Amen to that. O'Reilly is no more conservative than Jim Jeffords. One need look no further than his anti-SUV rants to see that.

I've had it with O'Reilly. He's an arrogant, shameless self-promoter who spends most of his time lambasting people for, how dare they, questioning his "overwhelming intellectual superiority."

Needless to say, I'll not be listening to him on the radio either.

Re your # 9...(O'reilly is)... an out of control populist who I refer to as a "know it all who knows little".

What you say may or may not be true. But then who in the media do you deem as being more informed while at the same time being less popular?

By the way, is there something wrong with trying to be popular?

Perhaps applauding the proclaimations and advice of some undefined media outlet serving a smaller elitist group (versus the "people")in our country carries more weight and accuracy in news broadcasting for you...But I haven't discovered such a group as yet....Have you?

"For the umpteenth time. O'Reilly is NOT a conservative."

You are correct sir!

O'Reilly's idiology lies on the outer edge of Conservatism within the realm of Authoritarianism.

Fine. If he crowds out a leftist, that is a improvement.

You are right about Bill O. He does serve a good function though. He is willing to take on big issues and people on both sides of the aisle. No matter what we may think of his style or personality it must be admitted that he does stir the pot.

As for Hannity, he is a poser and a corporate wonk. I can't even listen to him in the car anymore because he is so predictable and his thinking is so shallow. He has his conservative act down and will keep working but I don't see what value he brings. To agree to have HRC on his TV show but to agree that only Combs would question her highness was weak and ratings oriented only. No respect for that.
